when he heard the boat was riddled with bullets last fry night with the boston bombing suspect hidden inside, he thought why not help fund a new boat for the guy. he set up a web page, podcast his plea. within 48 hours, within that amount of time, he raised $600. >> i was surprised, i got hate mail. i was surprised no deed goes unpunished. part of it was the misunderstanding that somehow i was taking away from the real victims, the victims with horrendous loss. instead, it was, no, this is both. if you go to my campaign and video, there's a button to donate to the victims, the boston victims but if you have $25, toss it dave's way, toned down a little bit since they realized in no way are we trivializing. >> reporter: the effort combined with a couple of others online

he said he's looking at it again. he may narrow the scope of it. i disagree with that i thought the scope was fine. >> not sure why they suspended the policy. the policy had been commended by minority groups saying the practice of curb sitting is a form of humiliation that unfairly targets them. just broken ground on the first public elementary school in more than 50 years. but not everyone is happy about the big moment. nbc bay area's kristi smith joins us live in burlingame with more on the controversy. kristi, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, marla. quite a few parents we spoke to think it's a great idea. they were excited. they say enrollment is up in burlingame and they need more space. we spoke with a number of neighbors who say the location of the school is the real issue. the burlingame school district held a ground breaking this morning for hoover elementary,
